I tracked down the problem to the TDM-GCC installer linked in
your post. It appears that even though the installer is from an
older version, it will still download the latest one (4.7.1), and
not even give you an option to select an older version.

There's an option at the start [check for updated files]. I remember
having to unselect that to install an older version. Don't know if it
still works.

Is it possible now to rebuild druntime and phobos without building the
compiler from source first?
If not where are the most up to date instructions for building GDC on
windows?
Kind Regards

Hi,
I'm sure you've seen it anyway, but just in case, I wanted to draw your
attention to a 32-bit TLS bug I think I found, which only seems to
affect this version.
Details are in the "Can GDC make DLLs?" thread:
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/kgb15b$2o05$1 digitalmars.com#post-kgbdu5:24b2p:241:40digitalmars.com
There's a crash in the 32-bit build of a quick non-DLL test I did too,
but it looks different - it's in the GC thread. I have no idea if it's
the same bug or not.
Thanks for the hard work though - I'm very happy that GDC exists :)

Hi Daniel,
I'd like to try building GDC for MinGW-64 myself, so I could
contribute patches.
Are the instructions at http://gdcproject.org/wiki/MinGW64 up to
date?
I noticed it mentions some patches attached to a BitBucket
ticket, but the ticket now points to a patch queue, and GDC
development had since moved to GitHub.

The instructions are not up to date. The patch queue was merged into
the mingw branch at https://github.com/venix1/GDC.git
I've been working on doing a fresh install in order to update the
instructions.
